This is an old revision of the document!
- base: intimidate a target into doing you a favor. more likely to work vs lower level. can: give information, take actions that do not endanger them, render other basic assistance. After you leave they hate you.
- meatshield: force nearby allies to take hits instead of you. also can use intimidated subjects.
- collateral: for every ally/intimidated subject you hit with a multi-target attack, damage to enemies hit with same attack increases by +1
- motivator: when you kill an ally/intimidated subject, the others all get a free recovery action (including yourself). more recovery actions for higher-level allies
- rapacious: force an ally/intimidated subject within 10m to pay a resource cost for you
- face of death: can intimidate as a single action. intimidating somebody in battle causes them to run away for their full next action.
Even the most consummate diplomat would do well to learn something of strength and brutality. Sometimes that's the only language you can make yourself understood in.
